🎄A Christmas Wish🎄
Bowie Notsurewhatsheis was sad.
She been on Sniffyerbits Social Media site talking to her sister Babs in Italy.
Babs really wasn't happy. She had some kind people looking after her in Italy who'd rescued her mum from the streets shortly before Bowie and Babs came into the world. She had food and shelter but was finding it hard to cope with the other dogs and was barely eating.
Babs asked Bowie if she could come to Bridlington and live with her and the kind lady who looked after Bowie.
Bowie wasn't too sure what to do and asked Ava and Summer Jack Russel for help.
Fortunately Ava was still in touch with Black Jack Jake the one eyed Whippet from SW9 who ran a protection racket on Stockwell Park Estate.
Jake had recently busted the Lambeth Labradors out of Battersea, fled the country and was running a Bar in Spain as a coverup to his Bonio laundering business.
Black Jack Jake had always fancied Ava so was more than willing to help but would need someone in Italy who could sort Babs out with a passport.
Bowie said her mum in Italy was very friendly with Butch 'The Teeth' Luciano who had Mafia connections and would be able to sort out all the paperwork.
Granny 'Big Licks' Romano and Al 'The Hump' Pacino said they could provide a 'safe house' for Babs before they got her over the border.
Summer Jack Russel said her friend Bulldog Bill who she met when she was in the Dogs Trust in York had a second hand car dealership near Selby and could provide transport.
Ava said she could do the driving and would pick up Black Jack Jake in Spain on the way.
Summer would go with them as she was small and good at getting under boundary fences and Bowie was needed as translator.
Babs wept doggy tears of joy when Bowie face timed her and told her the plan.
Bowie explained there was a lot of planning involved, it would take time to sort everything and Babs must be patient, but hopefully by the end of January Babs will be sitting on the sofa next to Bowie in Bridlington and Babs's Christmas wish would come true...........🙏🤞🙏🤞❤️

Humphrey Daschund told Ava and Summer that her mum and dad had been to the Kennedy Space Centre.
Summer Jack Russel said Aunty Sue would like it there because she kept saying she needed some space.
Ava said she'd find out where it was so they could all take Aunty Sue for a day out to this centre where there was space.
They phoned Buddy Border Collie to ask him if it was in Flamborough but Buddy was busy watching the Flash Speed Mop advert and didn't hear his mobile.
Summer said Bertie Chihuahua would know where to find Space because he knew where Cuba was.
Ava reminded them that Bertie was still grounded after he was caught dealing Buscopan in The Waynes residential home on a recent trip to see Grandma Jean.
The manager said Bertie could go again but they'd have to frisk him first.
Humphrey said they could ask Uncle Andy where to find Space but they'd have to wait till he stopped walking round the garden in circles.
Luckily Barney Border Terrorist came round to see them and he knew all about the Kennedy Space Centre because his mum and dad had been to Florida which is where it is.
Barney explained that Florida was a long way from Bridlington and they would need passports, plane tickets and lots of money.
He said it was where all the celebrity dogs go on holiday. Dogs like, Brad Stik, Johnny Fedd, Woofy Goldberg and Lady Waga.
Barney said that Angelina Boney and Gwyneth Pawtrow had their own luxury kennels in Florida with private swimming pools and kennel maids on 24/7 call.
Humphrey said it all sounded very nice but he loved his mum and dad and his life in Bridlington and didn't even mind the rain and cold since his mum bought him his lovely red coat and constant sunshine can get very boring.
The others agreed and went to find Aunty Sue to ask her if they could go down Bessingby and visit Pets at Home instead.
The place full of Space could wait for another day.......

Lord Wilbur S***zu said he quite enjoyed the fireworks, everyone hunkering down together with scarves soaked in Lavender oil and the 1812 overture blasting out.
Wilbur said it reminded him of the Battle of the Somme and his days in the RAF drinking Scotch with Dinky Bates in the hanger.
Bertie Chihuahua said Wilbur was telling porkies because the Battle of the Somme happened before the RAF was formed and so Wilbur was officially busted and he wasn't even a real Lord.
Wilbur said even if it wasn't true it was better than hearing Bertie Chihuahua rattle on about his days as a freedom fighter with Che Guevara and asked Bertie if he even knew where Cuba was.
Bertie said Cuba was near Danes D**e, everyone knew that, and went off to look for his shades and bandana.
Bailey Cavalier said he loved listening to Wilburs stories about his days in Singapore with Shanghai Suzi and Punjab Pauline and asked if they could go to Singapore and meet them.
Lord Wilbur said Bailey would have to wait for that treat as tomorrow he was heading off to Uncle Ralph's manoir in Gascony where he had a rendezvous with the rather delectable daughter of the local vineyard owner and may be away sometime.
Bailey went to find Bertie to borrow a bandana and ask if he could go to Cuba with him instead...........

So it's been another crazy few weeks at Beach Happy Dogs.
Luckily Aunty Sue and Oreo Parsons JR managed to get some R&R in with their 12 days in Sandsend before Jeff and Fabien came over for a week from the Dordogne.
The 'Dog Hotel' theme was a whole new concept for the French.
They raised their gallic eyebrows when Aunty Sue announced she was going up to bed and was followed by Barney Border, Bailey Cavalier and Buddy Border Collie.
They contained their shock when Bailey jumped on the dining table to lick the butter dish clean and steal Fabiens toast and marmalade.
They were indulgent when we threw a party for them and everyone turned up with their dogs and they managed to be patient when canines were plonked on their knees for photo shoots.
They were even tolerant about having to sit on the arm of the sofa because Ava the German Shepherd was spread out asleep on it.
But Jeff did express he'd rather his mates in France didn't find out about Aunty Sue making him and Barney Border enter the Dog with the Waggiest Tail competition in the Canine Carnival at Sewerby Hall.
Jaffa Parrot made them welcome although her request to 'make us a brew' was lost in translation.
Bailey Cavalier asked why they were here and Buddy Border Collie said something about Entente Cordiale.
Bailey knew that was a drink you took with you went you went camping but didn't know why it involved Jeff and Fabien.
Barney Border Terrorist said he thought they were very nice but why were all the women staring at Fabien.
Ava said Aunty Sue was trying to get him 'fixed up' whatever that was. But all her friends were too old or married.
Bowie Notsurewhatsheis said the French don't worry about stuff like that and she knew because she's Italian which is nearly the same as French.
Bailey Cavalier said he wanted to go on the pub crawl with them.
Ava said they wouldn't want Bailey with them and took Fabien on a cliff top walk to Flamborough where they gazed out to sea together and discussed cross channel trade deals, the price of fish and the works of Baudelaire........

Sprout Cocker came to stay.
She'd had a busy year running 'Jumpyerbones' Canine dating agency and Pawtons night club with Finn Cocker and needed a break.
She'd left Finn in charge while she was away and lazed happily in the sunshine listening to the birds singing and the home brew bubbling in the shed.
Bailey Cavalier was scrolling through Bumbook and Ava the CEO was at the window making sure the nice men who collected the bins left treats for her, when suddenly the idyll was broken......
Sprouts mobile rang and it was Rocky Rottweiler head of Humberside Police Dog Unit.
Apparently Finn Cocker had invited everyone on the client list of 'Jumpyerbones' dating agency to an almighty bash at Pawtons.
Dog Gossip the resident Lhasa dance group had asked the T**T team (Terriers with Attitude) along too.
Buster Big Nuts Boxer, leader of the Barnsley branch of Hells Hounds picked up on the party via Sniffyerbits social media site and him and his gang headed over on their bikes.
On arrival, Buster and his crew who'd already drunk far too much John S***z Bitter with Snapps chasers made a beeline for the delectable Lhasas who were busy having their Bums sniffed by the T**T team.
Emboldened by alcohol, Buster Big Nuts made a play for Laetitia Lhasa who was dressed up like a dogs dinner and busy showing her assets to Stan the Staffie boss of the T**T Team.
While Lady Waga blasted out on the sound system all hell broke loose and the ensuing chaos resulted in Pawtons closing down for 3 months whilst repairs were carried out, a double page feature in Barko magazine and Peter Levy running a report on BBC Look North.
Finn Cocker was last seen heading off to St Barks in the Caribbean on his mates yacht and Sprout Cocker went to see her financial advisor about taking early retirement........

We met Beau Pointer on our morning walk. Beau is usually with his dad. Beau's mum said she was taking Beau out because he had a cough. Aunty Sue asked if he'd had had the kennel cough vaccine and was he up to date with his booster. Beau's mum said it was her husband who had the cough.......
We are still embarrassed and may hide for a while 🐕

"Beach Happy Dogs" ⛱️ 🌞🐕

03/08/2024

Bowie Notsurewhatsheis came round to meet Charlie Cockerpoo.
Bowie had recently fled Sicily after her husband the Mafia Boss, Butch 'The Teeth' Luciano upset one too many dogs and was on Interpols most wanted list.
Although Bowie enjoyed the notoriety of being a Mafia Bitch she really wanted a quiet life now, chasing balls, peeing on sandcastles, lunch at The Ship, stuff like that and found herself a lovely lady in Bridlington who said Bowie could stay with her rent free in return for cuddles.
The only hiccup was Bowies habit of hoarding items from the house down the side of the lady's garage. This included mobile phones, bank cards and various undergarments.
The lady phoned Charlie Cockerpoo and asked if he could help.
Charlie Cockerpoo worked as a volunteer for the Dogs Trust mentoring young pups who'd had a rough start in life.
He was the ideal dog to have a chat with Bowie about her kleptomaniac tendencies.
During a stroll round the woods, Charlie gently broached the subject of Bowies hoarding to her.
Oh what a relief it was to Bowie to finally speak to another dog.....she poured her doggy heart out to Charlie about her escape from Italy in the back of a Ford Mondeo, her life as a Mafia bitch but most of all about her puppyhood in the family Castello in the Tuscan Hills and how the irresistible scent of pheromones from her saviours undergarments had flooded her with memories of her beloved grandmother Francesca "Big Licks" Romano.
With tears in her doggy eyes Bowie told Charlie she'd stolen the mobile so she could phone "Big Licks" but didn't know her number.
Charlie Cockerpoo set up an account for Bowie on Sniffyerbits social media site and they managed to contact most of Bowies family.
Unfortunately granny "Big Licks" had passed away shortly after finding fame starring alongside Al "The Hump" Pacino in The Dogfather.
Bowie was so happy, her life was complete now and she insisted on taking Charlie out for a Puppachino to celebrate.
Paying wouldn't be a problem at all she'd just managed to nick Uncle Andys bank card ...........
